About Elocon Lotion
Elocon Lotion is used to reduce inflammation (swelling), itchiness and redness caused by certain skin problems called dermatitis or psoriasis. Dermatitis is a common skin condition associated with dry, itchy, or swollen skin. Psoriasis is a condition in which skin cells multiply faster than normal, resulting in white scales and itchy, dry patches.
Elocon Lotion contains Mometasone, which works by acting inside skin cells and inhibiting the release of certain inflammatory substances in the body that cause redness, itching, and swelling.
Some people may experience inflamed hair follicles, acne, thinning of the skin, itching, stinging, tingling or burning sensations. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist, please consult your doctor.
Please inform your doctor if you are allergic to mometasone or any other medications. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, please inform your doctor before using Elocon Lotion. Elocon Lotion is not recommended for children for long-term use as it may lead to slow growth.
Uses of Elocon Lotion

How Elocon Lotion Works
Storage
- Consult a dermatologist to know why the skin was depigmenting and hence get proper therapy.
- Your doctor may recommend light therapy, such as narrowband UVB phototherapy, to stimulate melanin production.
- Use SPF 30 sun protection and protective clothing to prevent the skin from getting damaged by the sun.
- Apply moisture to your skin regularly to maintain its hydration and health.
- Avoid harsh skin products that can worsen depigmentation.
- Use a serum or take supplements of vitamin C to promote healthiness in the skin and build up collagen.
- Wash your face in the morning and evening with a mild cleanser to take off dirt and sebum.
- To limit oil contact, try not to touch your face as much particularly your chin, nose, and forehead.
- Moisturize with a light oil-free lotion that nourishes the skin while allowing the pores to breathe.
- Throughout the day, get rid of excess oil by using oil blotting paper.
- To get rid of dead skin cells and unclog pores, exfoliate once or twice a week with a mild exfoliator.
- Eat foods rich in Omega-3, like salmon, tuna, and walnuts, to boost collagen and skin firmness.
- Eat foods rich in vitamins C (lemon, orange) and E (almond, avocado) to protect skin cells from damage.
- Consume plant and animal proteins for skin repair.
- Drink lots of fluid or water for healthy skin.
- Exercise regularly to improve muscle tone and skin elasticity.
- Limit sun exposure and use sunscreen to protect skin against sun damage and preserve its elasticity.
- Use hydrating moisturizers and retinoid-based products to improve skin suppleness and promote collagen production.
- Mild hair follicle inflammation often heals on its own without needing treatment.
- You can apply a warm saltwater or vinegar solution to the affected area with a washcloth, or use over-the-counter antibiotics, oatmeal lotion, or hydrocortisone cream for relief.
- Avoid making the affected area worse by not shaving, scratching, or wearing tight clothes.
- Apply a warm compress to the area 3-4 times a day for 15-20 minutes to help speed up healing.
- Do not scratch, squeeze, or pop any bumps, as this may lead to infection or other problems.
- If self-care methods fail, consult a doctor for further treatment and advice.
